The safety engineer uses a logging and monitoring system to track from a project's start to its finish.

There is no federal product liability law.

The standard serves many industries and organizations as a guide to quality products, services, and management.

The impact of software defects is always trivial.

Software developers do not typically work closely with safety and software engineers.

A(n) assures buyers or lessees that a product meets certain standards of quality.

Products, such as statements of requirements, flowcharts, and user documentation, are known as .

Process-control computers enable the process to be monitored for variations from operating standards and to eliminate product defects before they affect product .

The plaintiff must have a valid contract that the supplier did not fulfill in order to win a(n) claim.

A complex system used in IT is a redundant array of independent disks (RAID), which is commonly used in for file servers.

In integration testing, special software programs called static analyzers are run against the new code.

In the awarding of software contracts, particularly by the federal government, organizations that bid on a contract may be required to have adopted and to be performing at a certain level.

If an organization follows widely accepted development methods, on its part is hard to prove.

A primary cause of poor software quality is that developers do not know how to design quality into software from the very start, or do not take the time to do so.

A(n) is one whose failure may cause human injury or death.

The use of software introduces that concern many executives.

A(n) is any error that, if not removed, could cause a software system to fail to meet its users' needs.

Software suppliers frequently write to attempt to limit their liability in the event of nonperformance.
